Yun Li took temporary charge of the Steward Hall and forced its staff to produce ten years of records. Yun Qing exposed widespread corruption and offered leniency to those who confessed, leaving the hall divided between collaborators and the accused.

• Yun Li presented his Appointment Jade Slip, ordered every staff member to gather ten years of account books, and silenced Yun Gong’s protest with a saber strike.

Yun Qing explained that Yun Li’s visions in the Fate Formation Disc showed a possible future that could still be changed, then urged him to ask Yun Huang for guidance. After Yun Li agreed to meet the Young Lord, the brothers began a Go game, and Yun Qing tried to change Yun Li’s view of Yun Huang.

• Yun Qing told Yun Li that the visions were warnings of a likely future, not an unavoidable fate, and that present choices could change it.
• Yun Qing advised Yun Li to seek answers from Yun Huang and arranged to take him to see the Young Lord after his seclusion ended.
• Yun Li reluctantly agreed to meet Yun Huang, partly to report the reorganization of Steward Hall and to protect Yun Yao.
• Yun Qing invited Yun Li to play Go, and Yun Li opened with an aggressive, unorthodox move.
• While the game progressed, Yun Qing asked Yun Li what he thought of Yun Huang and suggested the Young Lord valued talent regardless of birth or rank.

Yun Qing urged Yun Li to take advantage of the Young Lord’s favor, then heard Yun Li recommend Yun Lie’s Desolate City lineage for the vacant Twelfth Elder seat. The chapter ended with Yun Qing realizing that the reckless Yun Poxiao was Yun Lie’s grandson.

• Yun Qing told Yun Li to approach the Young Lord and make use of the opportunity, while Yun Li wondered whether the Young Lord had a split-soul disorder or cultivation problem.

• Yun Li recommended Senior Yun Lie’s Desolate City lineage, recounting how Yun Lie had risked himself to draw out half of the Taowu’s baleful intent and save him.
• Yun Li argued that Desolate City’s frontier experience and Yun Lie’s possible breakthrough to Immortal Venerable made the lineage a strong choice.
• Yun Li revealed that Yun Poxiao, one of the Twelve Young Masters, was Yun Lie’s grandson, leaving Yun Qing astonished.

Yun Qing learned that the Great Zhou Immortal Dynasty had sent Ji Wen to deliver an invitation and probe the Yun Clan about its reincarnated Young Lord. As Ji Wen sought permission to observe the upcoming Profound Ascension Ceremony, Yun Che had not yet answered him.

• Yun Qing watched the clan members settle into their duties, then returned to work and rejected an application to run betting pools during the Profound Ascension Ceremony.

• Ji Wen asked after the Yun Clan's reincarnated Young Lord, but Yun Che said he was in secluded cultivation and could not predict when he would emerge.
• Ji Wen offered treasured items for the Young Lord and then asked to stay and observe the Profound Ascension Ceremony; Yun Che remained silent.

Ji Wen and the Yun Clan elders discussed the Ji Clan’s motives and the invitation to the Jade Capital Banquet, while Ji Wen devised a cryptic reply for the Zhou Emperor. Yun Qing later told Huang that Ji Wen had invited him to the banquet in two hundred years and that the Ji Clan would observe the Profound Ascension Ceremony.

• Ji Wen secured permission for the Ji Clan to observe the Profound Ascension Ceremony, and the First Elder ordered the elders to watch Ji Wen and his party closely.

Yun Qing received Brother Huang’s warning about trouble at the Profound Ascension Ceremony, then opened the ceremony as the Ji Clan’s Minister of Rites watched the Yun Clan’s growing strength. The chapter ended as the thirteen lineage heads entered the Battle Stele Trial, with Ji Wen considering the threat the Yun Clan could pose to the Ji Clan.

• Yun Qing interpreted Brother Huang’s fruit to the head as a warning against anyone disrupting the ceremony, and Brother Huang marked another fruit to reject the Jade Capital Banquet.
• Yun Qing left his seclusion and resolved that the Yun Clan would no longer be treated as subordinate to the Ji Clan.

• Ji Wen assessed the Yun Clan’s powerful disciples and leaders and worried that its continued growth could surpass the Ji Clan.

Yun Qing and the First Elder deflected the Ji Clan’s marriage proposal by saying the Young Lord must decide after emerging from seclusion. Their discussion ended when the Battle Stele Trial concluded and the thirteen Lineage Leaders appeared.

• Ji Wen proposed an alliance between the Yun and Ji Clans through a marriage to the Eldest Princess, naming Yun Qing as her preferred match.
• Yun Qing said the marriage required the Young Lord’s approval, then claimed the Young Lord was an elder of the Yun Clan and was cultivating in seclusion for as long as eighty years.
• The First Elder backed Yun Qing’s explanation, and Ji Wen agreed to revisit the proposal after the Young Lord emerged from seclusion.
• The Battle Stele Trial concluded as thirteen shafts of golden light appeared and the Lineage Leaders emerged.
• Yun Lie emerged from the first shaft after breaking through seventeen layers of the battle-soul illusion realm, and Ji Wen judged him close to the Immortal Venerable Realm.

The Yun Clan’s thirteen Lineage Leaders passed the Battle Stele Trial, and the clan began the Dao-Inquiry Platform round to choose its twelfth elder. During a discussion with Ji Wen, Yun Qing and the elders learned that Great Zhou’s Eldest Princess possessed the infamous heaven-dominating physique, turning their attention from a possible marriage alliance to outrage at Ji Wen.

• Yun Lan, Yun He, Yun Tiexin, and the other Lineage Leaders each cleared the Battle Stele Trial with their distinct abilities, and all thirteen advanced.

• Yun Lan chose to teach the Dao of yielding water, while the other Lineage Leaders prepared to ascend their platforms.
• Yun Qing asked Ji Wen about Great Zhou’s Eldest Princess, and Ji Wen revealed that she possessed the heaven-dominating physique.
• Yun Che identified the physique as one associated with a fierce temperament and a reputation as a humanoid calamity, while Yun Yuan rebuked Ji Wen for proposing her in a marriage alliance and calling her gentle and sweet.

Ji Wen tried to present Ji Lingri as a suitable match for Yun Qing, while the Yun Clan hosted lectures and watched the marriage proposal with suspicion. After Yun Che stopped Yun Yuan from attacking Ji Wen, the elders met in secret and concluded Great Zhou had a major hidden motive for revealing Ji Lingri’s Heaven-Dominating Physique.

• Ji Wen praised Ji Lingri’s lively temperament and hoped the Yun Clan would accept her as a bride for Yun Qing, but Yun Qing politely said they were not destined to be together.
• Yun He, Yun Lie, and Yun Lan delivered acclaimed lectures on alchemy, combat, and practical lineage arts, strengthening the Yun Clan disciples ahead of the Nine Heavens Azure Cloud List.

• Yun Qing, Yun Che, Yun Yuan, Yun Shi, and Yun Zhenye gathered in a sealed chamber and agreed that Great Zhou’s marriage proposal was likely a cover for a much larger purpose.
• Yun Yuan questioned why Yun Che had stopped him from probing Ji Wen, and Yun Qing asked Yun Shi for his assessment.

The Yun Clan elders suspected the Ji Clan was pursuing a larger plan involving Yun Huang and ordered heightened surveillance during the Profound Ascension Ceremony. In secret, Ji Wen confirmed Yun Huang was in Langhuan Clear Void and received the Zhou Emperor’s order to proceed with the plan, leaving him uneasy about the danger it posed.

• Yun Qing and the Yun Clan elders concluded that the Ji Clan might target Yun Huang to break a deadlock tied to the Immortal Emperor’s secrets.

The Sixfold Unity final trial began with Desolate City, Southern Mountain, Western Ridge, and Northern Marsh fielding teams of six across three generations. Northern Marsh’s Yun Tiexin challenged the fairness of outsiders joining a lineage’s team, and Southern Mountain’s Yun Lan deflected the dispute toward Desolate City’s married couple, Yun Xiao and his wife.

• Yun Qing announced the four qualifying lineages and explained the six-person, three-generation format of the final trial.
• Yun Jinglei, Yun Tianluo, Yun Hua, and Yun Pengxing teased Yun Ge over his lingering regret at losing to Yun Li, while Yun Li arrived from the Steward Hall.
• The four lineages entered the arena with their chosen fighters, including Yun Poxiao and his parents for Desolate City.
• Yun Tiexin argued that all six fighters should be Yun clansmen from their own lineage, questioning whether outsiders could compete fairly.
• Yun Lan countered that Dao companions counted as kin and turned the question toward Yun Xiao, prompting Yun Lie to slap his son and joke that Yun Poxiao had started the genealogy on Yun Xiao’s head.

At the Yun Clan gathering, Yun Tiexin and Yun He tried to sideline Southern Mountain's powerful Azure Frost Sword Lord, but First Elder Yun Che shut them down. Yun Lan arrived with his wealthy children and doted on his wife as the contest approached.

• Yun Tiexin proposed a contest without wives fighting, and Yun He backed him, hoping to weaken Southern Mountain by excluding Qing Shuang.
• Yun Lie recognized Qing Shuang as the middle-stage immortal venerable Azure Frost Lord, and Yun Che ordered Yun Tiexin and Yun He to stop their argument and prepare for the contest.
• Yun Che privately asked Yun Qing how Yun Lan had won Qing Shuang's hand, while Yun Qing noticed Yun Baotang and the twins Yun Jinyu and Yun Yinzhu.
• Yun Lan asked to serve as an elder because Southern Mountain's elders were away managing businesses, and Yun Qing granted his request.
• Yun Jinyu and Yun Yinzhu praised their absent second brother, while Yun Lan promised him more immortal mines and offered Qing Shuang treasures for her sword sect.
• Qing Shuang gave Yun Lan a quiet assent after he promised to supply her with sword-forging treasures, leaving the surrounding lineages astonished.

The four lineages fought in the arena to determine who would claim the Twelfth Elder position, with the Azure Frost Sword Lord carrying Southern Mountain through the opening clash. Southern Mountain’s children were escorted out, leaving Yun Lan and his wife to face the other lineages as the battle continued.

• Yun Qing began the Sixfold Unity battle, declaring that the lineage with the most combatants left in the arena would become Twelfth Elder.
• Yun Lie led Desolate City’s spear formation against Northern Marsh’s magical treasures, while Western Ridge spread its Hundred Herbs Lost-Trail Formation through the melee.
• The Azure Frost Sword Lord unleashed the Azure Lotus Sword Formation and used her Frostglow Sword Qi to hold back all three opposing lineages.

• Yun Che deflected Ji Wen’s questions about Southern Mountain’s young people and possible marriage ties.
• Yun Lan sent Yun Baotang and the twins off the platform as their strength waned, leaving himself and the Azure Frost Sword Lord to battle the other lineages.

Desolate City's six-fighter formation won the Profound Ascension Ceremony after the Azure Frost Sword Lord left the final battle to them. Yun Qing named Desolate City champion and promoted Yun Lie to the Yun Clan's new Twelfth Elder, while Ji Wen's reaction hinted that he had been waiting for this moment.

• Yun Lan left the arena while his wife continued fighting, leaving the Azure Frost Sword Lord alone against the other lineages.

• Yun Qing declared Desolate City champion and promoted Yun Lie to the Yun Clan's new Twelfth Elder.
• Ji Wen briefly reacted in the guest seats, anticipating the moment he had long awaited.

Yun Lie was appointed the Yun Clan’s Twelfth Elder, and the clan’s fortune gathered around him and the Desolate City branch. Ji Wen used the moment to locate Langhuan Clear Void and send the Treasure-Dropping Coin toward its outer restrictions, prompting the Yun elders to attack him just as a sudden upheaval began.

• Yun Lie and the Desolate City disciples celebrated their victory while Yun Xiao embraced his wife, and Yun Lan told Yun Baotang that his family would move to the main branch.
• Yun Qing and the elders performed the ritual that appointed Yun Lie as Twelfth Elder and bestowed the clan’s fortune upon him and the Desolate City branch.
• Ji Wen used the gathering clan fortune to sense Langhuan Clear Void and activated the Treasure-Dropping Coin to strike at its outer restrictions.
• Yun Qing hurled Bear All Things at the coin, Yun Che sent the clan’s fortune against Ji Wen, and Yun Zhenye attacked his coin-holding wrist.
• A sudden upheaval erupted before the elders’ attacks could reach Ji Wen and the Treasure-Dropping Coin.

Ji Wen revealed that he was the reincarnated Ji Cunxin and planned to merge Yun Huang’s fully reincarnated Immortal Emperor with Great Zhou’s incomplete immortal emperor origin to purge the Ji Clan. The overwhelming pressure suddenly vanished, and Yun Zhenye launched a surprise attack on Ji Wen.

• Ji Cunxin explained that he intended to merge Yun Huang with Great Zhou’s incomplete immortal emperor origin and use the awakened Immortal Emperor to destroy the Ji Clan’s factions.
• A gentle chuckle dispelled the pressure, and Yun Zhenye attacked Ji Wen from behind.

Ji Wen’s attempt to awaken the Immortal Emperor failed, and he escaped the Yun Clan’s attack through a star gate with the Great Zhou Generals. Yun Qing returned to guard Yun Huang’s seclusion, where the stone doors began to open on the ninth day.

• The Immortal Emperor’s pressure vanished, and Yun Che revealed that the Ji Clan’s essence was only a stray fragment, prompting the Yun Clan elders to attack Ji Wen.
• Ji Wen called for help from the Zhou Emperor and the Ji Clan, then escaped through a stabilized star gate with the two Great Zhou Generals as the Yun Clan struck at them.

• Yun Qing sat outside Yun Huang’s cultivation abode and guarded his seclusion, but grew uneasy as Yun Huang’s aura remained unnaturally still.
• On the ninth day, golden light spread across the Solar Divine Patterns, and the sealed stone doors slowly opened.

The Zhou Emperor discovered that the Immortal Emperor origin he had hidden was gone, while Yun Huang completed his seclusion and emerged in a mature imperial body. Yun Huang reunited with Yun Qing and began training him, leaving them sparring in the Cave Heaven.

• The Zhou Emperor entered the imperial secret vault to activate his array, but found the stolen Immortal Emperor origin missing.
• Yun Huang emerged beneath the Qionghua Jade Marrow Tree in a transformed, fully grown body, startling Yun Qing with his immense presence.

• Yun Huang guided Yun Qing through the laws of chaos for twelve hours, awakening his understanding of the chaos dao embryo.
